with clear waters and beautiful Mediterranean coastline, the region is
great for divers, swimmers and yachting.Although many people come to
Antalya just for the beaches and the fun associated with them, the
city has lots more to offer. Like many other Turkish cities, it dates
back to Greek and Roman times and has a few sights to prove it. The
Kale, the Ottoman citadel, is the nicest part of town. Narrow alleys,
old timbered houses, stone archways, and private gardens. The old
harbour (Yat Limani) is now a marina with modern yachts and very nice
to spend a evening outside, having a meal or a drink next to the
sea.Due to the fact that Antalya is a real tourist center, there is a
great infrastructue, many restaurants, shops, disco's etc. There is no
need to get bored here. The old harbour is also the place for many
open air events and concerts during the summer. Their are many
excellent daytrips to be made from Antalya. The ancient sites of
Aspendos , Perge , Phaselis , Termessos are all within a distnace of
50 kilometers.
